The WBCSD has launched the second phase of its successful Energy Efficiency in Buildings project.

The new project, EEB 2.0, will aim at Transforming the Market for Energy Efficiency in Buildings. It will:

• lead a replicable process of innovation and collaboration that accelerates investments in projects that produce radical improvements in energy efficiency in buildings
• working with large building portfolio owners to identify the key barriers in the decision making process for EE measures and how they can be overcome
• with the goal to get commitments from a wide range of decision makers to commit to launching and implementing a project within the EEB framework

This project builds on the outcomes of the first EEB project, which stated that a 40% of energy efficiency improvements can be achieved with a 5-year payback time, and additional 12% with 10-year payback… the second project aims at realizing these opportunities, working with a wide range of market actors
